The invitation arrived in my mail box this past weekend. I called the DC office today and "accepted the invitation with great honor and excitement". I leave for orientation on September 8th, land in Morocco on September 11th, and am officially sworn in as a Peace Corp Volunteer on November 26, 2007.
This is all very overwhelming yet very fulfilling knowing it is finally really happening.
Reality hits hard.

Hi Kristin.
I have been nominated for the same program in Morocco leaving in September! I still have to finish my dental exam, so I haven't been invited yet, but it's neat to run across your blog.
Congrats! Welcome to Peace Corps Morocco!
Kristin,
I'm soon to be invited to community development in Morocco as well. Drop me a note if you like: kaiserjoeicem (at) netzero.net. If you're not on the Yahoo group list, check that out as well. There's a general PC one and a Morocco one as well. -- linley, detroit

hey! i just came across your blog today-I'm official too! I's awesome to see so many people going on the same trip. I can't wait to meet everyone!
Congratulations! I was a youth development volunteer in Morocco, left in 2003. It's a beautiful country that I miss every damn day (especially now that I'm studying for a bar exam...I would MUCH rather be chatting with my host sister over couscous). If you have any questions, my email is rwelch@tulane.edu
Trek Sla'ama! (safe travel)
